The Library Journal and CHILDREN OF THE DARK

Posted on by Jonathan Janz

Howdy, friends! The Library Journal has just published an outstanding article featuring six big 2016 horror releases. Included in that lineup are Brian Keene’s PRESSURE and Joe Hill’s THE FIREMAN. The article also talks about my new novel CHILDREN OF THE DARK, calling it “a perfect choice for those missing old-school Stephen King.” Which is just about the nicest thing anyone could say about my work, especially in light of my recent blog post about how much I appreciate my favorite writer of all time.

Huge thanks to Becky Spratford for writing such an excellent article, and thanks to The Library Journal for publishing it.

    1. Howdy, Brandi! There will indeed be a sequel to Children of the Dark.

      Since Children was a prequel of sorts to another book (Savage Species), the next novel in the series will combine those two stories into a HUGE sequel, one I’m itching to write. I’ll probably get to work on it in late 2017 or early 2018.

Jonathan Janz grew up between a dark forest and a graveyard, and in a way, that explains everything. Brian Keene named his debut novel The Sorrows “the best horror novel of 2012”. The Library Journal deemed his follow-up, House of Skin, “reminiscent of Shirley Jackson’s The Haunting of Hill House and Peter Straub’s Ghost Story.” Samhain Horror will also publish his third novel, The Darkest Lullaby, in April. Savage Species will be his fourth full-length work. Look for his fifth novel, a vampire western called Dust Devils, in early 2014. He has also written three novellas (The Clearing of Travis Coble, Old Order, and Witching Hour Theatre) and several short stories. His primary interests are his wonderful wife and his three amazing children, and though he realizes that every author’s wife and children are wonderful and amazing, in this case the cliché happens to be true.
